I am glad you are getting some meds going. Would it be too forward to inquire as to what those are at the moment? Just curious.

Sending you support!! Hang in there!! This will get better. Don't give up! It may take a little time, but you will feel better.

Thank you, and it does feel like it could be a mixed episode, except that I don't have as much insomnia and racing thoughts as I usually do during mixed episodes. I don't know if that could be due to the meds. Right now I'm only on lithium (but not at a therapeutic dosage yet) and some benzos for anxiety and sleep.
